Aggies Drop 3-2 Decision Against Denver

Texas A&M enters the highly anticipated Fish Camp Game with a 1-1-0 mark
BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION – The Texas A&M soccer team came up on the wrong end of a seesaw affair Wednesday evening in a 3-2 loss to the Denver Pioneers at Ellis Field.
The Aggies got on the board early with a goal in the fifth minute by MaKhiya McDonald, but the Pioneers scored in the 30thand 40th minutes to wrangle the lead away.
Allison Lowrey scored an equalizer for the Aggies in the 41st minute as the teams went into the intermission tied 2-2.
Denver (1-2) stunned the Aggies with a give-and-go goal in the 52nd minute and the Maroon & White were unable to pull back even.
Texas A&M (1-1) was left wondering 'what could have been?' with two shots off the top woodwork, including a Macy Matula header off a corner kick in the first half and a Mia Pante shot following a free kick in the 87th minute.
The Aggies owned the advantage in shots (19-16), but the Pioneers had the upper hand in shots-on-goal (7-6) and corner kicks (6-3). Denver's first two goals came on the secondary action following corner kicks.
GOAL SUMMARY
5' Mia Pante dribbled the ball along the end line and sent a pass across the box to MaKhiya McDonald's left foot as she buried it in the bottom left corner from 12 yards out. A&M 1, DU 0
30' Hannah Tate fed the ball outside the top right of the box to Michaela McGowan who fired a laser to the top right of goal from 22 yards out. DU 1, A&M 1
40' After an unsuccessful clearance on a ball volleyed into the box, McGowan passed it off the bounce from the right side of the box to Ella Frost who hit it for a one-timer from 13 yards out. DU 2, A&M 1
41' Kennedy Clark intercepted an errant pass in the Denver third of the field and sent the ball to Allison Lowrey who beat the approaching keeper to the left corner from the 18-yard box line. A&M 2, DU 2
53' On the counterattack, McGowan sprinted down the right side of the pitch and made a move to the inside of the defender to the top of the box then quickly passed to a wide-open Megan Murray who drove it home. DU 3, A&M 2

The Aggies host the Fairfield Stags Saturday at 8 p.m. for the Fish Camp Game, annually one of the most highly attended games in collegiate soccer.
